  1. Huh? Well the distance to the VOR/DME is 92.4 NM, ground speed is 180 kts, and it'll take 31 minutes to get there.


  2. Slant range, speed across the ground, and a prediction of the time interval to overhead the station based on present rate of convergence.

  3. slant distance to the station is 92.4, Ground speed (airspeed +wind) =180 kts, time to the staion is 31 minutes.
